It works on every level! Such a clever concept and I love how you can frick up and shoot yourself. 


The presentation was also fantastic and cool theming. I really hope you expand it!

This is a hidden gem, well done :D

Some more love could've been added into the arena, like tiles, or some plant decorations, but i can't really complain much

I got like 3 player size upgrades before anything meaningful but I guess that's how randomness works. Super clean visuals and audio. Being able to hit yourself with the gun makes the game infinitely more tense and makes the weapon feel more powerful. Very interesting dynamic, it almost feels like an enemy itself.

Cool game! I like the idea of the spinning but for some reason the UI and at times also the direction of the weapon seemed to be severely misaligned with where it shot. The gun almost never shot in the direction it pointed. Not sure what the issue there was. (Played on Firefox)

Other than that. Graphics were slick and controls felt nice. A handful of waves in I did start to feel a bit bored and would have wanted something to change up the pace if the game was to be expected to continue much beyond that.

But overall i liked my stay.

Best game I have played so far! Nothing to criticize really!

Really nicely done! The slot machine animation was really satisfying :)

Well done, great art and serious polish, I really liked this spin on the theme, first thought rotated gun would fire in the rotated direction but it still fires to aim, does being closer to the angle u are aiming at increase damage?

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing our game! The gun rotation and aim position have no effect on damage, only the rotation speed increases it. We decided to not make the the gun fire in the rotated direction as it would be too difficult to aim consistently

Fair

Not at all my kind of game (and not only because I am absolutely trash at it), but this is too well executed to not love. And that's not even touching on how amazing the use of the theme is (the little spinning wheel to fire, the spinning slots for perks, the spinning coin for revivals, just wow).

If I have some criticism, it's that I don't know that slowing down and speeding up the weapon seemed to do much. I got that for some of the other weapons it mattered more, but with the starting gun I just found it most beneficial to have it on the highest speed all the time since it dealt more damage too. Even in the early game (and even with how bad I played), it just didn't feel worth it to have it going slow. I felt like maybe I was missing something to that mechanic.

That's really me digging to find some feedback though. This is so polished for a jam game. And I would love to see you continue to develop this mechanic. It's all too good.

Loved the theming. I thought the perk system was really clever, I like how it can help and hurt you. Also liked how the gambling theming extended into the revive mechanic. Overall really enjoyed the game.

Awesome game! Loved the gameplay, visuals and all!
Also it took my way to long to realise that the green on the circle was when it was safe to shoot.

Developer (1 edit)

Yeah, it definitely needed a bit more explanation. I actually took your feedback and added an image in the gallery explaining it, thanks for the feedback!

Good mixing of the theme of the jam and the casino. The multiple elements like the dice, slot machine and coin combine very well.

I only use the gun, the knife is not very useful because you throw it and need to pick every time.

Great game

Developer

Thank you so much for the feedback! Yeah, the knife isn't that strong early on, but it can be really useful against a large group of enemies.

Loved the gameplay! Was a nice challenge to both shoot but also watch where I was shooting.

Developer

I'm glad you liked it!

Great concept and very fun! I lost count at how many times I accidentality shot myself lmao 🤦‍♀️

Developer (1 edit)

Haha that happens! The SMG especially makes it way too easy to hit yourself🤣

Submitted(+1)

Really fun to hit it only when you can while running away.

cool concept! the art and effects are awesome. I like how each time you spin the effects stack so after a while it gets pretty crazy

Developer

Thanks so much! 😁
